Call And I'll Come

by Mary Burchell

Heartfree, carefree, a favourite of fortune – that was Hamilton Roone. With looks, position, and money, he certainly merited the description. So when he found and married the little nobody Anna, rescuing her from a life of dullness and poverty, his family were genuinely horrified. For her own part, Anna felt guiltily that she was receiving everything from him and giving nothing in exchange; the fact that she loved him deeply and sincerely seemed to her to carry little weight in the face of the material benefits she was receiving from her marriage. And so began Anna’s long hard struggle to save the situation – but it was only when things went wrong trhat the two of them at last began to find each other.
